WHY DO WE CARE??
Segregation and Discrimination went agaisnt the Fourteenth Amendment. The Fourteenth Amendment was intended to grant citizenship to and protect the civil liberties of recently freed slaves. It did this by...prohibiting states from denying or abridging the privileges or immunities of citizens...depriving any person of his life, liberty, or property without due process of law...denying to any person within their jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws. Segregation and Discrimination was unconstitutional and unlawful.
